EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Tattenham-Corner" takes us back to the 19th century English countryside. The image showcases a pivotal moment in horseracing history, captured with remarkable detail and precision. The scene unfolds at Tattenham Corner, an iconic bend on the racecourse in Surrey's Epsom Downs. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported to a time when horse racing was not just a sport but also a spectacle of elegance and excitement. A group of racehorses gracefully gallop around the corner, their powerful muscles glistening under the sunlight. Jockeys clad in vibrant silks guide their steeds with skillful finesse as they compete for victory. The tension is palpable as spectators eagerly watch from the sidelines, their eyes fixed on the thundering hooves that kick up dust clouds behind them. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on May 24th, 1851 – a testament to its historical significance. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable record of sporting heritage. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite piece of artistry for future generations to admire. Through this print, we can appreciate not only the beauty of Tattenham Corner but also the enduring allure of horseracing as an integral part of British culture.
